I have a host being monitored in nagios 3.0 that fluctuates between being down and unreachable. The periods where it is listed as unreachable typically only last a few seconds to a minute (I didn't even think it was checking that often, but whatever), while the periods of "down" time (the host really is down) are several hours in duration. Naturally, every time it fluctuates back to down (only up and down alerts are enabled for this host-not unreachable), it sends out an alert, which gets a little annoying.
This all would make sense, however, except for one thing: this host's parent, and all other parents back up the tree to nagios are listed as being solidly up as far back as the records go. So why is it briefly switching to an "unreachable" state, and how can I make it stop? Or at the very least, how can I make it stop sending alerts every time it switches between these two critical states? Thanks. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service Inc. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7250 x293 ----------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
